A Philologist's Prayer
Robert St. Vincent Philippe
Our Teacher who art in English,Proper be Thy Noun;
Thy Adverb come,
Thy Will (and Shall) be done
In Pronouns as in Interjections.
Give us this day our Passive Verb
And forgive us our Prepositions,
As we Decline those who Conjugate against us.
And lead us not into Conjunctions,
But deliver us from Adjectives,
For Thine is the Comma,
And the Period,
And the Colon, forever.
Amen
Kõige esimese grammatikaloengu meenutamine ning veel reedel ja kolmeteistkümnendal (ja see päev alles algas)!!! Milline iroonia.
